The Sille Slipover Mini is worked from the top down in a knit and purl structure pattern. First the back yoke is worked, then the shoulders, and then the front yoke are worked flat. After this, the front and back yoke are joined and the body is worked in the round, and finally rib edges are worked along the neck and armhole openings. Begin by knitting a swatch to determine which needle size you need to achieve the correct gauge before starting the project.
